Closer the NB and then north on hiway 4 and west of 4 yields are far more consistent.
East of 4 they vary huge with more spotty rains

just finished all the wheats. hrsw slightly above average durum average. Looked better from the road but still very thankful for what we got. heat took alot of the yeild we thought we were getting. East of kenaston/north of Davidson in the steep clay hills

Yes, and thankfully the smoke stayed away too.

Spoke too soon. Haven't seen the sun all day for all the forest fire smoke here today. Wasn't in the forecast till halfway through the day either. I don't mind at all. Was supposed to be +33 here today, which is about 30 degrees outside of my comfort zone. Building grain bins lately in the blazing sun is not very pleasant, but was quite bearable today in the smoke and with some wind.

Harvested some wheat on friday, 11 moisture , checked bin yesterday 45 degrees ,fans have it cooled down now.Canola yesterday was testing 0 moisture.When this harvest is over we will have to pull grain out of every bin to be safe.In 40 years i dont remember this hot for such a long stretch.And Wind.

Dry dry dry. I am hoping I can add some moisture weight back in the aeration bins later in the fall but I doubt it.

Definitely go time here😎


Shook things up and got a d****r head for the one combine. Sure glad the neighbour talked us in to a flex d****r as my brother is very impressed with it in the hills. Also got a bagger and that is quite a learning curve.



Preschool started today and the youngest daughter made a deal that if she got the potty figured out and could wake up dry that she could go. She has been hounding us for quite some time that she wants to go like the big kids do. Hopefully her enthusiasm sticks around and she’s able to make some new friends.

They grow up so fast. She’s not even 3 yet but acting like a 6 year old🍀

You darn right they grow up fast
Youngest started UofS , oldest done her first 4 years business and now into Law at the UofS
My son in the middle has 2 years business now off to be a dancer / performer on Disney’s new cruise ship Wish .
Crazy how time flies , seems like not that long ago they were just off to preschool like your daughter woodland 😳
